A Classy Boudoir. Many wooden storage bed frames and similar designs add a touch of style to a bedroom. These can be good alternatives to fancy and expensive headboards. The “built in bed” isn’t just for storage: it’s a kind of distinct design choice for a room. Evaluate your overall furniture scheme to see if a floor-standing bed frame with drawers fits into the bigger picture for a space.

Bed height. Bed height should correlate with your height and adjust accordingly if you’re fairly short or tall. Most mattresses are 16 to 24 inches from the floor, to judge which end of the spectrum your bed should be, sit at the edge of the bed. If your feet are flat against the floor and your knees are in a straight line with the hips, your bed is the right height. If your knees are above the hips, the bed is too low and if your feet can’t reach the floor comfortably, the bed is too high.

Aesthetics. Finally, bed height is important because it can affect the overall look of your bedroom. For example, a lower bed can make a room look more spacious than a higher bed. However, if you’ve got a particularly tall room with high ceilings, a taller bed would appear more appropriate with the space. As well as plenty of storage, a tall bed offers a sense of refinement. While a short bed is literally more grounded and creates a laid back and minimalist impression.
